On« Year —...... ..................... PAGE THREE O 50 APRIL 12, 1935 RELIEF? The much debated relief bill is now passed and on its way to becoming history instead of current events. No doubt the average man’s reaction to it is that it calls for a heck of a lot of money. Well, $4,800,000,000 is a tidy sum when speaking of dollars although that many old time German marks wouldn’t buy much. For each and every citizen it means taxes of $40 or for the average family of 4.3 persons a family cost of $172. A Aixth of the people of the United States are on relief and will not be expected to pay any part of the debt for some years to come. If the money were to be distributed equally among the 20,000,000 on relief they should receive $240 apiece which would be a nice income nowdays for a family of 4.3 persons. It beats moat of the ordinary jobs. Of course, it will not be divided in that manner. Some will go for public works, some to the navy, probably, bridges, harbors, rivers, will get some and a small part will be used to start grass growing on the western plains. " We like the latter idea. The government should do the planning to aid in bringing back to cultivation the wind blown soil for upon erosion control depends the future of the country- But when the government has done the planning and has shown the farmers of that country what to do to hold their soil that is far qnough. The citizens of any land must retain some of the power to control their own destinies and to make their own decisions or they lose that ability altogether. A nation is made great by an independent and resourceful people, not by a government that does every thing for them. A child learns to walk by walking, not by watching its father. OUR HIGHWAY The impromptu discussion of the Sherman highway last Tuesday night at the Commercial Club meeting was another demonstration of the fact that Sherman county citizens are interested in having the south end of that road built to standard. No other subject receives so much notice at public gatherings here. There are a number of reasons why the stretch of road from the county line to the Criterion junction where The Dalles road joins Highway 97 has not been surfaced. It is ordinarily kept in very good repair for a graveled highway, the cost of putting it in shape to surface is thought to be excessive by the highway commission and—we believe this to be the most important reason—there has been no sus tained drive to acquaint everyone concerned with the matter about the road. If any highway in the state can be considered a perm anent road which will remain as now located for yea years to locatea tor come, surely the Sherman section of Highway 97 can be so considered. It is almost straight, there «re almost no grades and it runs through a district that will always need and demand a modern road. The highway commission have given much thought to new road» across the mountains but a few winters of average snow fall would cause an abandonment of this policy. There is still good reason to keep up the highways that lead to the Columbia for that is a natural way for all kinds of transportation. Cats to the right of them, cats to the left of them, volley and thunder. It may sound like Tennyson’s “Light Brigade’’ but it is merely a description of almost any town in eastern Oregon during the plowing season when farmers till their | acres with heavy machinery. One week the surrounding | landscape may be gray green with stubble and volunteer j wheat and the next it is brown and rich looking, as if ready at once to produce another crop of golden wheat. The criticism of Senator Steiwer over his vote on the work relief bills seems to be on the theory that when you're lined up at the pie counter never think about the bill. The Home Owner's Loan corporation is starting Borne foreclosure suits in Oregon. Tut, tut, Santa Claus mustn t Some day we are all going to wonder what the bottom of the Columbia river looks like. Now we can see it at Bonnev ille. We have work relief, direct relief and now work relief again. Soon well known what ia best — if any. Fred Krusow found three new kids in his bam one day this week as a present from a milch goat he has. Three is quite a few for a goat, but then there is no res trictions on goats, fortunatey. R. J. aker sold a gold pan to one man who wentfishing. He did not get fishi but thinks he found something even better although some fishermen prefer fish.
